Romelu Lukaku

[Styles 9,790]

Yea, I'd say Heskey could be compared to Kalou....they were never the most gifted of footballers but they tried their best on the pitch and they scored the odd important goal for their respective clubs...

Young Heskey was faaaar better than Kalou ever was or will be.

At least his career goal ends with Chelsea. I hope Chelsea feels the same way

I hope they plan on playing with him then... its gonna be great watching him in a chelsea shirt tho

Also means torres is leaving i guess

[Hutcho 8,443]

He doesn't know... All he has actually said is that he wouldn't think we would loan him because of how needle he had been doing. So we will see. I really want to see him in a Chelsea shirt but if we buy Falcao putting him on the bench for a season could make his progress go backwards as opposed forwards which another loan spell could do.

B-but I posted it ten hours ago.

I'm not sure if I agree with him returning yet...he has found a nice niche at West Brom and the more minutes he plays the better.

Too soon, needs a season to confirm his qualities

Sanity prevails!

Sanity prevails!

Until we buy Falcao at which point sanity loses again when 19 year old Romelu is sitting on the bench all season.

Hate the move. It reeks of desparation. The kid is 19. He really needs more time at West Brom to develop certain aspects that are lacking. It's not that he's not talented it just that he's going to go from super sub with occasional starts with a mid table club to Champions League caliber team and either be the main guy or play in a squad role. Either way it's a no win situation if he's the guy that's an awful lot of pressure to put on a 20 yer old who has never beena full time starter. If he's playing a squad role then what's the point?

If he stays at West Brom he expands his role into being the main striker and gets experience playing a full tiem schedule.

He's certainly capable of making the transition but he's coming back to play in FA cup 4th round matches etc the there's no point.

Lol at your name then

And if he score 20++?

[LukakutoStamford 779]

Like I said it's not about Lukaku being capable as I don't think that's the question. It's about the immense pressure of being the main guy at Chelsea without ever being the main guy in a top five league. Frankly, it's one of the best ways for an immensely talented player to fail, to have expectations to be the main scorer on one of the world's best clubs without having been the full time striker in a comparable league.
